False Relationship - Shark Tank

Shark Tank Episode Finale - Alpha M.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KilBoMFrkZA

The person who is asking for the Shark's help is none other then one of the most famous youtube influencer in style , grooming , fashion , fitness and anything to do , for a man to be an alpha male , Aaron Marino , asking for a $100,000 for 10% of his business of Pete and Pedro.

The episode was recorded when Alpha M only has a about 600,000 followers on his youtube social media. Now, he has almost 2,000,000 Subscribers !


In the Shark Tank episode , Alpha M needed help in growing his business for Pete and Pedro , a brand that he created himself , for Hair products and cream.  Aaron has tried many and multiples hair products brands that "guarantees will work" but it doesn't. Most of the products he uses are a disappointment and thus , he wanted to create a product that would work for a majority of people , thus , Pete and Pedro.

So he gave each of the Sharks a sample, they smelt it , touched it , and were not impressed. None of the Sharks were impressed. They didn't see the value in the product . However , they some something else , the potential of Aaron Marino and his social media. They tried to buy Aaron Marino and Pete and Pedro together , saying that Pete and Pedro is not worth that $100,000 for 10% and offered Aaron and Pete and Pedro together as whole combining these 2 businesses , hence the false connection.

At this point , Aaron didn't know what to do , He needed help for Pete and Pedro , not his youtube channel . Although he made a deal with one of the Sharks , Barbarra , in the episode , he rejected her offer of buying his channel after the whole episode. He made a video talking about what happened after Shark Tank.

In the end , he rejected ALL the shark tanks offer as the False Connection is too heavy to marry together . However ! He totally killed the episode , boosting his sales for Pete and Pedro. Shark Tanks  didn't buy Pete and Pedro , the consumer who watched Shark Tank did. Most of his products are out of stocks and Pete and Pedro name rose.

Even if he did not get the Shark's helps , he did succeed.

  I am Officially a Panda!!

I just started working as a food deliveryman at foodpanda on a sunday morning as an OJT (on job training) getting paid only 25$ flat. I didn't like spending my 4 hrs and wasting petrol while just accompanying another rider on his delivery (although i learnt a lot from collecting food to transaction with the customer) for just $25 ! My 4 hours is not worth $25 ! So , I decided to ask the manager of the day whether there was a slot in the afternoon , and i was delighted to hear that there is a 5 hour slot on that exact evening.

I geared up and with the training thought by my senior rider , i set off for the delivery. The pay is very, very high . The highest pay i received while working as a part timer in other shops and company. It was very very tiring but i racked up about $140 that day. It was all worth it I guess. I can spend my whole day with my bike while getting money? I'm on ! Will probably stay in Foodpanda for a very long time.

Asmira is the winner by vote from my whole group. Personally , even if Asmira has the best works , she has missing post , thus her work is incomplete. I personally believe Audy is the best amongst them as she does her work , her work is complete , and she met most of the requirements , just that her works are slightly boring.


How does it feels to have power for critics?

I've been criticised and also critics others before. As we are pursuing art, we will be hearing a lot of criticism be it , constructive or destructive criticism. I believe critics are a way for us artists to learn the minds of others. However, how we handle this criticism is another matter. We could be making a perfectly sculpted sculpture but still get critics from other , like "The nose is too big".  We shouldn't be mad or sad and get pissed at that person. It could be a matter of perspective. Ask him to look differently, at a different angle. Ask him to visualise and think how we artists try to portray our
arts. 

If we are unskilled and still developing, criticism are a way for use to grow , understand our mistakes and also learn that life does not revolves around you. Other peoples are living in this world and each and every individual has different taste and thoughts.

How does it feel to have power for critics ? I feel that I'm helping others whether they want to give a ear , or not.

  My cat

  Meet my fluffy cat ! Her name is Putri ( Princess ) given to my mother but my family members called her PutPut cause cute mah. Not sure what is her age now but my family received her when I was in secondary school. I believe it was when I was in lower secondary. So , she is probably 8 years old i guess.

 A cousin of mine used to breed cats and her cats used to make more cats and out came 2 adorable kittens. One was greyish , white and the other was black like me. And we took the black one cause we black. So here she is now. A new family member and grew with us when we took her when she was like few months old.

 She is now fat , violent , abusive , controlling and basically a princess. We are a slaves and had to feed her every hour. Fat PutPut.

 First Time Driving.

So this was my first time handling a steering wheel, stepping on an accelerator / brakes / clutch of a car.  It was my very first Motorcar practical lesson where i learned how to drive. As I was walking towards the meeting area where my instructor was waiting ,  there was tons and tons of car , all lined up neatly and ready to move out. My instructor was waiting ( forgotten his name , omg) , an old man , filling up a certain form asking me to wait. The view was like this ..
 AHHHH ~

It doesn't look very scary in the picture , but it was very nerve-wracking in person. I stood there all nervous , yet very excited to start. Got in the passenger seat of the car , my instructor showed the basics functions of the car like the mirror and such , and i swapped seats with him. Now I'm the driver. He told me , " Just go . Don't scared. I won't let you crash " . So there I go , learning how to manoeuvre the vehicle. 10 mins in to the lesson , I went to the 5th floor.(was at the 3rd floor at first) There i learned shifting gears proper steering , blindspots and basically all the basics things you need to drive.  Stalling only twice because I wasn't accustomed to the vehicle. All in all , it was an amazing experience , and I believe it will be easy getting my class 3 license like how it was easy to get my class 2b.

Battle Royale (Analyse )



I won't go with the synopsis as you could just google that shit.

Review : THIS MOVIE IS AMAZING!
I've watched this movie many years back when my parents bought it. It was one of the first movie that I've watched again many many times when I was kid. I roughly knew the plot and what was the ending as i watched multiple times when I was like 6-7 year old ? But anyways , I knew what was going on. Watched it again today and it still amazes me.

So we are tasked to imagine what we would do in that situation in real life.

So first of all , if I were in that situation , I would probably panicked and pee in my pants(not really).
I would be shocked at first but it would also be rather exciting. We are tasked to kill one another and the survivor will get out. I wouldn't like that and I didn't want to hurt any of my classmates so I would just get the bag and hide and camp in a place that is convenient for me , alone. Checked my bags and make do with what I have. If I received a metal lid like that protagonist in the movie , I would be very depressed and probably just kill myself (not really).

SO , In terms of trust , I would not trust anyone , except maybe for Fifi and Shiifah as they are the most descent in my whole class I guess. They are nice and friendly to everyone and would probably try to find a way to get out. I would hang with them if I met them in the island but would probably leave if I find it stupid.

In the movie , there was a smart genius hacker that are able to find a way to remove the necklace(I think that was the case). However , we do not have any smart genius hacker in our class. Only some retarded pokemon master nerds and some dimwits. If I met them in the island , first thing i would do is ask them what weapons they have because I know they do not have the guts to kill because they do not look like the type that kills.

Outcome , I would probably be the final survivor or the guy who died trying to save others.

I think there will be multiples group
The Chinas that will consist of the 3 china girls that I've never talked to and they would probably kill each other and the survivor will run amuck killing the rest of the class.

The Geeks that is Aiman and gangs where i believe they will try to find peace until maybe Qinthara lost control of herself and kill everyone like the scene of the food poisoning.

The Indon that is all the indonesians that will probably kill each other in the first day.

Fifi's Alliance that consist of almost all the other classmates that are missing.

The Lonewolf's that is Me , and i think Darren .

The Killer that will be , Fiona , Grace.

Yeah man. I will survive.

Analogical Thinking

Group 1 
Roshni , Shahnabil , Jaden , Thoi

Our 4 research for fantasy analogy.

My post and research will be about ... MOTOBOTS!



Motobots by Yamaha created to compete with the motogp world champion , Valentino Rossi.

Personal Analogy - Wanted to create a robot that can drive.

Direct Analogy - Inspired by the world motogp champion, Valentino Rossi , and to surpass him.

Symbolic Analogy - Taking elements from a human , creating a machine.

Fantasy Analogy - A Robot that can drive and also Race.

In my opinion , this could be world changing as if this is tuned to be able to drive safely on the road , it could take over all the dispatch riders. There will be no more dispatch riders . It will all be Motobots. McMotobots for macdonalds or something like that? Fast and efficient.

Next will be Roshni idea and research , the tea strainer !
  designed by Alan Chan

Personal Analogy - Inspired by a bird in a cage

Direct Analogy - Giving a feel of a Chinese tradition of drinking tea

Symbolic Analogy - Elements of drinking tea while enjoying nature

Fantasy Analogy - Bird like thing working as a strainer



Next is Jadens idea and research , Google self driving car!


Personal Analogy - Personal quest to save lives and reduce traffic accidents.

Direct Analogy - Daily occurances  driving a car takes up alot of time therefore wanted to use that time to do something more productive.

Symbolic Analogy - Taking elements from a human to make a machine.

Fantasy Analogy - What if you can drive a car without a driver.



Finally would be , Thoi's ideas and research , the 3d Doodler


Personal Analogy - Instead of using pencil to draw , why not try drawing on the air?

Direct Analogy - Instead of using the 3D printer , why not create a small portable one that is similar to a pencil.

Symbolic Analogy - It is so mainstream to just use a 3D software to create 3D structure so let's just use a pen that can construct and print the structure at the same time.

Fantasy Analogy - We use that pen to create household items instead of making them.
